Re: I would like to ask the DTs for their opinion on this case

Obviously they would be neutral tags (for shitposting and misleading people) but I can imagine people complaining on this section and sending me PMs to remove them.

Oh, you'd better believe your inbox would be flooded with such requests--assuming the affected members happened to notice a neutral, which some often don't.  That's never a good reason not to leave a critical neutral or a flat-out negative feedback but in this case I'm not sure anything needs to be written on anybody's trust page because they think they can make the return you mentioned.

I'd imagine some traders (good/lucky ones) would have no difficulty making bank, especially when the crypto market is extremely volatile.  True, there could be some idiots in that thread just talking out of their ass, i.e., shitposting in order to get paid and making claims that aren't true, but if I were going to tag any of them my comments would reference the low value of their posts and not the gnarly profit they say they can/do/could make.

Better yet, if you've got the time and inclination you could check some of their post histories and see if they've got a pattern of writing pure crap.  Should that the case, handing out a neutral for being a chronic shitposter would be a good thing, especially if any campaign managers wound up seeing it and denied them a spot because of it.  That doesn't seem to happen very often, though.

Since I haven't actually checked out the posts in question I think I'll do that now.  Why not end the night with some frustrating and perhaps rage-inducing reading.  There's always plenty of both in 90% of threads, and it's been that way for years and years, so...
